Akira Main Character Map

another translation, this time of the character map from the AKIRA WORLD Hot Dog Press/Young Magazine special edition. I've wanted to do a full TL of the magazine eventually, but haven't found the time so I only did the CYOA game until now. However someone requested this so here it is. Nothing really new or exciting, but some of the character descriptions are funny, especially Kaneda's...

(sorry for my trash scans, if anyone can provide a better quality i would love you<3)

More under the cut !

Neo Tokyo Government

Don't think of anything but their own self-protection. A shameful bunch. Only one of them, the Colonel, is seriously thinking of what to do about “AKIRA”. An organization that gives a look at what the government will become in the near future(?). None of them understand the power of “AKIRA”, and none try to.

Masaru (Number 27)

Although not as strong as Takashi’s, he definitely has psychic powers. Like Kiyoko, he can’t walk on his own and sits in a baby chair, but he has the power to levitate so he can act on his own to some extent.

Kiyoko (Number 25)

She has excellent precognitive abilities, and foretold Akira’s awakening. Unable to walk on her own, she’s always laying in her capsule bed. She is like a madonna figure for Takashi and Masaru. She also can be said to be leader of the two of them.

Takashi (Number 26)

One of the residents of the Colonel’s lab. He has strong psychic powers. Mistaken for Akira and kidnapped by the revolutionary army, he was walking in the middle of the road in Neo Tokyo when he came into contact with Tetsuo.

Dr.

Chief researcher of the Colonel’s lab. He is the one who is in charge of Akira, who rests in a frozen capsule. A stereotypical academic type, he also has an idealistic side. In one scene, the Colonel called him a ‘romanticist’.

Colonel

Commander in chief of the country’s top secret ‘Akira Plan’. For the purpose of executing this plan, he manages a lab (research facility) where Takashi, Kiyoko and Masaru live. Kiyoko’s prophecy confirms that Akira will awaken, and he demands an outrageous budget to prevent this from happening. He plays the role of “a dependable soldier”.

Kaneda's Bike Team

Self proclaimed delinquent boys in excellent health, a group who does whatever they want. They’re so popular among bad boys, they even have groupies somehow. On very bad terms with the drug addicted Clown Team, they have a strong sense of team unity.

Tetsuo

While driving wild on the highway with Kaneda and the gang late at night, he comes into contact with Takashi. This awakens an unknown power in him, and he even turns against Kaneda, his friend since their days at the children’s home. It's pretty thought-provoking that a guy who was withdrawn until now suddenly gets a big attitude......?

Kaori

Tetsuo’s girlfriend. She stays by Tetsuo’s side when his psychic powers awaken, and is a pure, innocent beautiful(?) girl, which is rare these days.

Yamagata

The team’s second in command, he takes the role of special attack leader. However, he meets a tragic end as he is killed by Tetsuo who’s started to go berserk. This ignites Kaneda’s desire for revenge!

Kaneda

The team leader. He gets wrapped up in the conflict between the revolutionaries and the army surrounding Akira. A super toughguy with the lifeforce of a cockroach.

Kai

He doesn’t stand out much in the team, but plays an important role helping Kaneda in the latter half of the story. Dresses himself in tasteful trad fashion, but is simple at heart.

People's Revolutionary Army

An organized terrorist group, in a manner of speaking. They control things politically behind the scenes and are at Nezu's beck and call. In pursuit of the secret of Akira, their clashes with the Colonel-led army are a daily occurrence. They are a considerably large scale organization.

Kei

A strong-minded, beautiful girl with combat ability and initiative. She met Kaneda while escaping a failed attempt to take back Akira. They make for a unique odd couple, but unfortunately never had a ♡ scene.

Ryuu

A leader of the People’s Revolutionary Army. One of the few people who knows Akira’s true identity. He attempts to take back Akira under Nezu’s orders, but what will happen!?

Nezu

Leader of a party that is in opposition to the current administration. Behind the scenes, he manipulates Ryu’s guerrilla organization in an attempt to obtain Akira. Textbook example of a scheming politician. As his name suggests, he’s a nasty, sly rat-like man.

Clowns

Joker

Boss of the murderous motorcycle gang, the Clowns. In a massive brawl with Kaneda’s team, he sent many people to the hospital using his huge body and superhuman strength. However, he has a total weakness in the brains department.

Other

Miyako-sama

Founder of a new religion whose influence is growing in Neo Tokyo. Nezu is an ardent believer of this religion. She is powerful enough to foresee the disaster that would be caused by Akira, but in the anime she was sadly changed to just a pathetic praying old lady. However in the original work she is a powerful person rivalling Akira.

Akira (1988)

[d3d9]

one of my favorite things about kaneda's design is that he has ears that kind of stick out and face forward. it's not like a big deal but i was kind of teased by my parents for my ears that look like that but i actually think it looks really cute and i love to see it in any character design. he's this cocky tough biker dude but he has little stick out ears :)
